She is examining the broken link.
Remember... it only took one broken link to drop this huge bridge and the forty some vehicles into the Ohio river.

There were two bridges built with these plans. The other was up river at St Marys, it was closed immediately if my memory servers me well. They were both replaced.

I also never knew about this although I'm not young.![[emoticon]](http://www.coastresorts.com/sharedcontent/cfb/images/smile.gif "smile") I was rather busy half a world away in 1967.
Sleepy, really enjoy reading this. Although I am a little younger than you I have a somewhat similar life history. My wife keeps telling me I should sit down and write up everything I can remember. Might do that some day.
Keep posting and good health to you and Janet.
